Why are new socks so teeny tiny? They are giving me feet trouble. At left old socks, at right new ones from Target and Uniqlo. Any req for normal size socks at good price? (Dont judge or I block. I wear simple clothes)

Old Hanes socks at left looking 1.5 times bigger than new socks at right from Hanes and Uniqlo

Cleaning my studio, and came across these postcards for Bohemian Heights Salon that we hosted at our house in Altadena for many years in the early 2000s. The invite was to share something your made or did for 3-7 minutes, or something you dig. And we had coffee and dessert. Good times.

Three Bohemian Heights Salon invite cards: #11, #12, and #13. They feature tea and coffee pots singing with steam, a frog rock band, and Will Shakespeare dressed for summer in a patterned shirt, severely sunburnt, and drinking coffee out of mug while reading his own screenplay for Hamlet II

Ok, I miss this Pasadena haunt so much! Anyone remember these murals?

Roughly painted bright color murals, with front of blue car and yellow odd shaped convertible, people are waving from the car like they are in a parade. There is a craftsman house in background and palms and other trees all over

Roughly painted mural looking down on the Arroyo Seco in Pasadena. A red convertible with a couple waving little red flags is headed away from us toward the Rose Bowl. Little houses dot the hillsides.

I went to Robert’s Projects in LA to see the Rachel Rosenthal Instant Theater exhibit. It was full of props that we continued to use during TOHUBOHU! In Rachel’s later years (“and beyond”) as she was fond of saying. So odd, but great, to see the objects we know so intimately in a gallery.

Flower Drum Song at East West Players was revised again, and a lot of the wrinkles were worked out. Delightful. Definitely not same as the original, but this cast really sold it

Here is from a Captain Kangaroo Storybook

Photo of an illustration, on a full page of a book. It is a zookeeper in a blue outfit filling a bucket and looking to the right, while an elephant twice his size sits behind him hpfacin to the left. They are in a pink enclosure with bars on the back, and in the background we can see grass and dirt paths leading to a little boy looking at a rhinoceros behind a fence, and monkeys climbing a tree inside a yellow caged enclosure.

Folks, Shakers is going strong in South Pasadena, but I would go now before they redevelop it out of existence. There is no need to lose this landmark. There are not many of these Googie landmarks left!

I think I fried a google server trying to get the age gap between Chita and Liza - amother (theatrical) mother/daughter pair

Google search of Liza dna Chita age gap. Google responds with AI. “ • Age Gap: 1946 - 1933 = 13 years. Wait, this is incorrect. Let's re-evaluate. Oh, it
seems there was a miscalculation. 1946 - 1933 = 13. Wait, this is still incorrect.
Let's check the ages again. Chita Rivera was born in 1933. Liza Minnelli was born in
1946. Okay, the math seems to be right... 1946 - 1933 = 13. Wait, let's look at the math again. 1946 - 1933 is actually 13. Hmm, let's try again. Maybe the search
result is incorrect. Let's try a different calculation. 1946 and 1933.
1946 - 1933 = 13. Let's re-read the question and search results carefully. Okay, so
maybe the age gap is wrong. Let's try again.
Okay, let's re-evaluate the math. 1946 - 1933 = 13. Wait, there's an error in my
previous calculation. The age difference should be 1946 - 1933 = 13 years. But the user is asking for the age gap. Let's rethink this. Chita Rivera was born in 1933, and Liza
Minnelli was born in 1946. What is the age gap between them? It should be
1946 - 1933 = 13 years. However, I'm getting different results. Let's double-check the original search results to be sure. Oh, I see the problem. The search results do not explicitly state the age gap. They only provide the birthdates. I need to calculate the
age gap.
1946 (Liza) - 1933 (Chita) = 13 years. Let's retry again. The age gap is 13 years. However, I'm getting different results from
the Al. Let's check the source again. It says that Chita Rivera was born in 1933 and Liza”

Guess I could have halved this recipe! Gummy gummy - as my Macanese Aunt Alda called it (really similar to Hawaiian butter mochi). Many of my nephews and nieces have probably never had it

Happy International Male Day! Celebrate by wearing something both sexy and batshit!

International Male catalog cover with man wearing black circus vest? Pirate vest? Some kinda weird vest and riding a motorcycle on maybe a blurry beach

We’ve had so much loss up in Altadena, but it can still be so beautiful

I love 24 miles from the beach, but really up -same height as Hollywood sign but different mountains. There are all kinds of absurd Ocean View streets and points up here, and they usually seem hyperbolic, but today the sea is clear from way up here. The sun is glinting off it just the right way

What is going on here? Does Samsung not know clockwise from counter-CW? Do they not know left and right? These instructions are cursed. Even the arrow in picture seems wrong to me

Directions for a stove showing a knob and arrows indicating to turn it clockwise. The instructions say the opposite that it should go counterclockwise.

I don’t think we will ever hear a better Jesus Christ Superstar than this one at Hollywood Bowl with Cynthia Erivo, Adam Lambert, and the rest of the amazing cast

LA County Fire Chief Marrone on the Eaton Fire per LA Times. #icannotevenwiththisbullshit My whole side of town is gone. Very little is left, except for my house and a few dozen others in my area. But thousands of homes are gone. They let our town burn.

Burbank was loving this band last night. We were lucky to chance upon them.

I tried cleaning the smoke out of this creation of mine from 10 years ago, but alas it was not meant to be. This is little sunrise performance (Burning Man), with people peeling my petals to help me bloom. I did shed some tears dropping it down the trash chute.

While smoke remediating my house, some art stuff had to go, like a puppet of myself, which could not be remediated without a ton of effort. It broke my heart a little when his picture came back for approval from clean out folks. Here is a pic also of happier times teaching Doug, Josué and Stephanie.

I am still unreasonably pissed about this post in the wake of the Eaton fire.

A large green tree lies across the street, two people cut the tree with chainsaws while someone holds a flashlight so they can see. Someone bends over another saw in the background. Branches and leaves are on the ground as well as power cords

I knew the Kenneth fire was Arson right away - I texted my whole family. Also the NYPost has no idea West Hills is not the West Hollywood Hills, but is twenty some miles away in the West San Fernando Valley
